About Us
Hi! We’re Shannon and Richard and we’ve been exploring Japan together since 2009.
We live in Hiroshima and love travelling to lesser-known destinations all across Japan.
We started Take A Detour Japan to help you plan your dream trip that takes in lesser-known spots as well as the iconic sites that have made Japan such a popular destination.
Shannon can’t eat gluten so we also help gluten-free travellers find safe and delicious food in Japan.
